Searchbox not visible on IE8

[Karsten Bandlow]

div id=searchcontainer is not showing on IE8 with Template Default. Old template works

IE7 too

I only have IE 9 & 10 installed. This DIV shows in both of these browsers. I will try to set up an XP VM and test. In the meantime, can you describe a little more about how the div is not showing? Is space reserved for it or does the results window sit right below the menu bar? Can you post a screen shot? Thanks!

Hello Remi, you can try IE Tester http://my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage

So you have all IE Engines from 5.5 to 10

I discovered a bug in view/javascript/piler-in.js around line 480:

Piler.Searches.Expert = {

For some reasons IE8 complains about it, and nothing happens when you click on the search button. IE9 has no problem and works as expected, as well as Firefox and Chrome. So it might be a bug in IE.

I'll make some changes on the devel demo site to figure out a solution.

just committed a workaround for piler-in.js to work with IE8. It appears that IE8 doesn't like the following statement:

$('input#_search').val().trim()

I rewrote it to:

$.trim($('input#_search').val())

The original "searchcontainer" issue still stands.

Thanks for the link to IE tester. I will likely use that, but MS also has these VMs I was going to give a try: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11575

At any rate, will post what I discover about the missing DIV.

It seems that there was an issue with the body padding not being applied in IE7 & 8. i have added a conditional statement that takes care of the issue on both the search and audit pages. I may re-do the css for this in the future, as I'd like to add better support for smaller screens (tables) in the future.
